In response to a number of request I have made the TeX files of the ISIS V2.0 manual, and the postscript files available by ftp. The TeX files are a compressed TAR copy of a directory called "doc", with a top-level TeX file called "doc.tex". To build the manual just go "latex doc" twice in the doc directory. The index may or may not come out right. I've also made the postscript file in compressed format available through ftp. This file is HUGE (1.5 Mbytes compressed) so you don't want to pick up this file if you can handle either the dvi file or the TeX files. In fact we may have to remove the .ps file because of lack of space. 383211 May 9 14:17 ISISV20-DOC.Z doc directory 510429 Apr 27 10:31 ISISV20-DOC.dvi.Z doc.dvi file 1528535 May 9 14:22 ISISV20-DOC.ps.Z doc.ps file 194123 Apr 27 10:34 ISISV20-MAN.TAR.Z on-line man pages 1657466 May 4 10:25 ISISV20.TAR.Z Isis sources By the way, we always appear a bit reticent about actually telling you how to FTP Isis, e.g. what machine and which directory. This is because before you pick up our software you should fill out a form that essentially states that you won't give it to the Communist bloc (or what's left of it). Isis is partially funded by DARPA and is categorized as high-technology, and so is subject to restrictions on high-technology exports. So if you want to get Isis, send mail to our project secretary, Maureen Robinson (reen@cs.cornell.edu) asking for the form. Or you can phone her at +1 607 255 9198. She'll reply with the information about how to obtain Isis. You only have to do this the first time you get Isis. -- Robert Cooper
